Love the patterns and detail. Fit is great. I bought 2 shirts and a brown belt.

After having kids, my waist was never the same! Dressage doesn't help your self-image when riding in front of mirrors. I started riding in vests to help me feel better and give me the illusion of the waist I used to have. Many vests would bunch up, pull in different spots, or make me look boxier. This vest does it all! It gives you gentle compression without bunching or creasing and smooths out your silhouette with the extra length in the back! This vest is a need, not a want! Thank you, Taryn, for finding such excellent materials and perfecting the pattern and lines of this design.

I just got my new vest and I am in love with the fit!! I ordered the black and I loved it so much I ordered the brown as well. I normally go for a double zip but this one fits so nice that it really doesn’t need it!

This vest is so comfortable and perfect for fall. It is true to size and it is so cute. Definitely recommend.

The best riding vest to date! All vests in the past have bunched up and been too long in the saddle. This fit looks phenomenal. When it arrives, it looks tiny but it stretches to fit you perfect! I wear a small in Novella shirts and did a Medium for the vest for a bit more room but if you wanted to compress, the small would be perfect too bc there is so much stretch.

To say I love this vest is an understatement! This vest hugs your curves perfectly but it is not restrictive. The fabric is so soft and stretchy without stretching out as you ride. Hits perfectly at my hip and is contoured well so that the vest does not bunch when you're in the saddle. The fit is perfect but size down if you want a snugger fit. I usually wear a small but the extra small fit perfectly as I like my riding clothes to be fitted. All in all a great purchase!

I purchased the Shawnee short sleeve style and love it so much, I bought the long sleeve style. The Novella shirts are extremely comfortable and flattering, by far my favorite equestrian apparel!

They were great to ride in and are so very stylish! Love them.

The Quil.

The Oldilon is as pretty in person as it is in the pictures and I feel great in it! Like all of my Novella tops, it’s as comfortable as it is flattering. Love it!

Every shirt that I own from Novella is my favorite. I really love the colors and the fit. The fit is so flattering.

Very cute, well made and generous sizing.

I have bought a few of these sun shirts - they are comfortable and look nice. Most sun shirts feel heavy to me and when it’s warm out I don’t like to wear them - not true with these. They are airy and light - protects me from the sun and I can wear them while it is in the 90s 😊

As a trainer, it’s hard to find riding apparel that 1, holds up, and 2 stays comfortable after riding multiple horses, and having long days in the barn.
I absolutely LOVE my Novella Sun shirts, and riding tops I have gotten. They are super beautiful, and really flattering! I always get compliments on them, at shows, clinics, and at our farm. I really value the fact that all the sizes are true to what they are. Which can be difficult to find when shopping for riding apparel.
Thank you Novella for providing such great equestrian clothing, and for your quick shipping!
5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Golly gosh these are stellar. Soft and comfy but also supportive, sticky but not TOO sticky. The waistband is *marginally* more substantial than the rest of breech, and it’s certainly quite wide, so I’m glad I picked the larger of the two sizes I was considering. (I’m a 30L in most American brands, 32-34 in the European brands, and wear a L Novella shirt. I went XL on these and 👌) Fabric is a thicker weight - these might be a bit warm in the peak of a southern armpit summer, but will be great the rest of year.
